For the Machinists
Maybe the obvious question here, but did you try a dowel puller on it? In over 40 years in the shop, I've only had to resort to other methods a couple times when pull dowels weren't used, usually when there was nothing protruding to get a puller on and that was generally because of a crash where... -

Allen wrenches
Those aren't bad for light duty use, and probably are worth 5 times as much as the ones from HF, same with the Bondus Ball Drivers. I have them all, but when I really need to tighten or loosen something with serious torque and a cheater pipe I go for my old Unbrako allen wrenches, I have some... -

This week's project in the garage
Another thing to be concerned with is if it is indeed running backwards and it uses an oil pump to lube it like big shapers do, it's not pumping oil. -

This week's project in the garage
It looks like you did an amazing job of restoring that, I remember running one of those in junior high shop class, I'm not trying to be critical and maybe it's just the video, but it looks like the cutting stroke is faster than the return stroke which is opposite of what it should be. Any... -

Fabricators - Water Jet Cutting?
I have had a water jet in my shop since 1999, they are a nitch machine, generally speaking, but with exceptions they are more accurate than flame or plasma, but slower and costlier, less accurate than laser or wire EDM, but cheaper. If someone were to bring me a clean DXF file of that part we... -

welding problem
We apply Dawn dish soap to the inside surface of the windshield for racing in the rain, apply the soap and rub it out very thin, let it dry for about a half hour and buff it off with a soft cloth, your fogging problems are over. -

Farmall c
Super C has 123 cubic inches versus 113 in the C, Super also has a water pump, where the C uses thermo syphon cooling, because of the added water pump, the Super C has a taller grille, and thus the hood and gas tank sit higher by about two inches. Not sure if there are any other differences. I...- Ken(MI)

Are Cheap Drill Presses Worth Anything?
When I was first starting in the machine shop business back in the late seventies, I went to a LOT of auctions, had lot's of coworkers tell me to "pick up a $50.00 drill press and a $500.00 lathe for my garage while you're there". Yea, right, they were having a dream that never came true... -

Broaching stainless steel
The answer is in your original post, the broach is designed for cast iron, not stainless steel, stainless doesn't present any particular problems when using the proper tooling and lubricants, it will pull harder than cast iron, and you need to monitor tonnage closely and make sure the broach is... -

missing threads
It would seem to me that you would have no reason to fire the ignition switch unless you were intending to start the engine, and if so, wouldn't you already have it spinning before throwing the switch?- Ken(MI)

Heat Treating
Any time you heat treat something, tempering is mandatory, or else you are playing with something very dangerous, highly alloyed tool steels will actually break into many pieces if not tempered soon enough after quenching. Quenching should only be done down to 150 degrees and followed by... -

plasma cutter
I have two, a Hypermax Powermax 1000 at the shop and a Hobart 700i at home. No complaints with either, but I also have three large bandsaws and high pressure waterjet, so they don't get used heavily. I think of them like I do MIG welders, nice if you have other equipment, but if you can"t have... -
